200 runners and surely only a donk would be first out?
Correct!
200th Finalinsult QQ cracked by 44, ritual humiliation with a standing ovation from the card room and a humbling interview on APAT tv, boy do I feel sorry for my self.
We are at the 1st break and chip counts are as follows.
Basic criteria will be: 1) Regular Betfair Poker Forumite 2) Reliable 3) If a fem, willing to put out to a greek. If a guy, helmuthian folds is on hand to provide 90 degrees.
Thereafter its pretty much going to be based on the response rate. But Helmuthian and Gnashers are near certs :)
it's not a mates thing

And Klup had 18k but decided a shove with T3 suited into AA pre flop was a good idea. Gotta love the Greek donk!

agreed - mustard custard yellow was a bit hmmmm, stomach churning, but at least we could easily spot each other. Having said that, it took about 10 hands before i noticed AJCAIRNS sitting directly infront of me at my table!

Betfair have suppliers who do their branding and they selected the colour (I think it was determined by them based on the sizes they had available. Our team wasnt exactly small [smiley:crazy]).
AJCAIRNS is still in. He was short stacked yesterday on about 20 ish and has since had three double ups. Sitting on 130K atm.
Follow the broadcast!

Before yesterday, I never met gnashers, hardly ever come across him at the tables and hardly ever engaged in any real chat with him. But he grinds, he contributes and fully merited inclusion.
Helmuthian Folds is 100% reliable, established long time contributor to the betfair forum and an established player who has played in numerous team events. He has played betfair live, travelled to portsmouth for forum games.
NAP BETS and NOUGHT to do with a mates thing - irrespective of what you would like to believe.

Well played Andy a great effort from a short stack overnight. It was a great event (very well organised) and nice to actually meet the faces behind the names. Thanks also to FinalInsult for his update posts and the klup for making it all possible. Look forward to renewing acquaintances and meeting more players at the London Live event in 2 weeks time.

Happy with 6th and the JJ v TT that done for me was pretty much the first time that the best hand didnt hold up for me so cant grumble.
Thanks to Leigh and the rest of the APAT crew for a (as usual) very well run and enjoyable event.

Hi everyone. It was nice to put some faces to names at the weekend. As I was leaving my daughter introduced me to someone she had been chatting to on her table and it was not until we got outside she said it was Klup. I believe AJ Cairns was also on my final table too and I did not realise. I know most of these names from the APAT League games and look forward to our battles in Season 5. It was a great weekend.

It was very nice to meet you nelle, and your daughter of course. Please extend my appologies to her for talking her and the rest of the table to insanity!
Anyway I can find out the player who knocked out jbong? I promised him a bounty but the alias I have saved on my phone is not valid.
See you in season 5!
